Was lying around a friend's basement. Got it for free.
It feels awesome but the plugged in sound leaves a lot to be desired.
I have a problem hitting the volume knob when I play it and eventually there is no sound. I plan to alter the electronics so that the volume and tone are reversed and the tone will be a switch so that strumming will not alter it.
It's missing the whammy bar, but when I have put a makeshift one in it stays in tune pretty good. I do a lot of string bends so I am not so blown away by it's ability to stay in tune.
Sound

I use it with a Magnatone amp that I found in the garbage outside a bar in 1984.
The sound is very electric without much "wood" sound. Which makes sense because there is almost no wood to speak of.
Although I have never played one, I'll bet that the Steinberger version that is made of resin is a much better instument.
Overall though, I am very happy with it.

The action is awesome. Usually I can't resist tweaking my setup but it plays great with almost perfect intonation right now so I am not going to mess with it.

This guitar looks too tiny to be taken seriously on stage. It would be fun to play a solo or two on. Especially if you set up some outrageous sort of tone on it.
It's very solid. It feels like you could drive nails with it and it would stay in tune.

I've been playing for about 15 years and I have owned a lot of crappy guitars. Some only were good for smashing on stage.
The best thing I can say about it is that the first time I picked it up and played it I knew I had to have it.
